According to Tvline NBC’s Happy’s Place is bringing more nostalgia to the small screen with two new guest stars from the tv show Reba. Christopher Rich (Murphy Brown, Boston Legal) will appear as Maverick, a local tattoo artist who, despite suffering a debilitating stroke, continues to humor his clients with a playful attitude. His appearance reunites him with Melissa Peterman (The Summoning, Baby Daddy).

Rich’s character, Maverick, has limited mobility in one hand but doesn’t let that stop him from teasing his clients, joking about which hand he’ll use to tattoo them. “Maverick’s personality really shines through his resilience,” Rich said in a statement to TVLine. This marks another Reba connection to Happy’s Place as Steve Howey (Reba, Shameless), also guest-starred on the show in a Christmas episode.

In addition to Rich, Justina Machado (One Day at a Time, Queen of the South) joins the cast as Maritza, a tough, successful lawyer and single mother. Maritza, portrayed as a “survivor,” has worked hard to build her law practice and won’t tolerate any nonsense from others. Her role adds a new dynamic to the Happy’s Place storyline, showcasing the multi-layered relationships of the series’ characters.

The episode marks a significant moment for Happy’s Place as it continues to bring in familiar faces. The show already features regulars like Reba McEntire (Young Sheldon, Big Sky), Peterman, Belissa Escobedo (The Baker and the Beauty, American Horror Stories) Pablo Castelblanco (Dear White People, Room 104), Tokala Black Elk (Yellowstone, Grey’s Anatomy) and Rex Linn (CSI: Miami, The L Word: Generation Q). Co-created by Kevin Abbott (Last Man Standing, Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place) Happy’s Place is executive produced by McEntire, Michael Hanel (Rita Rocks, Titus), Mindy Schultheis (The Exes, Malibu Country) and several others.

The reunion of these beloved Reba actors, combined with the new talent joining the show, is sure to captivate fans both old and new. Happy’s Place continues to offer heartwarming moments, blending humor with familiar faces from the past.
